"Leah, you think we're too cruel, don't you?"
Jedi hugged Leah's immature shoulders, and the girl sobbed softly in his arms: "I'm sorry, Brother Jedi, I know that we have to do great things, and if we want to restore the country, there will be more cruel sacrifices in the future, but I can't help but feel sad when I see Aunt Charlotte's sad face."
Mr.
Dewar is a good man."
Jedi patted her on the back and said softly, "Of course, we didn't treat him badly.
Think about it, what will happen to him if our plan succeeds, he will also be one of the bankrupts, and the entire upper echelons of Baptiste will not be spared.
Now he is a little sad, but when that day comes, he will be happy, and it will not be a good thing for him."
"Hmm" Jedi's comfort and affectionate gesture made Leah's heart warm, and she whispered: "Brother Jedi, you're right, I'm too useless, I can only be emotional."
Jedi smiled, "That's good, I like your kindness, even if it looks a little silly."
Leah burst into laughter, she wiped her tears with her eyes, bit her lip and pushed Jedi, embarrassed to speak.
"Well, what's in the drawer," Jedi asked strangely, sitting at the desk, suddenly spotting a small portrait in the half-open drawer.
When Leah saw it, she pounced in embarrassment and said continuously, "It's nothing, oops."
She was anxious to close the drawer, but in her haste, she tripped over Jedi's foot, and the hand that had gone to push the drawer reached in, but the drawer was squeezed forward by her body, squeezing her fingers, and she couldn't help but cry out in pain.
Jedi hurriedly grabbed her waist, there was no room to stand beside the girl, and as soon as her knees went weak, she sat on Jedi's lap, so ashamed that her pretty face was red, and she didn't feel the swelling pain in her fingers.
Jedi didn't pay attention to the strange touch of the girl's buttocks sitting on her lap, he grabbed Leah's little hand, and saw that her fingers had been scratched out of the drawer with a red and swollen mark, and a layer of oily skin had been scraped off one side, and he couldn't help but say distressedly: "Look at you, it's really careless, it's very painful, find a piece of yarn and I'll bandage it for you."
"It's okay", Leah had never sat in Jedi's arms in such an intimate way, she wanted to jump, but her legs were weak and there was no strength.
Leah's chin was pressed against her chest, and she didn't even dare to lift her head.
At this moment, Barto drove to the backyard of the Dewar goldsmith's shop in his newly purchased luxury four-wheeled carriage, and before the coachman could open the door, he pushed it himself and jumped out.
He is now a regular visitor to Jedey's house, although everyone knows the name of the Good Luck Boy, but he knows that his good luck is brought to him by Jedey, and the news that Jedi reveals to him intentionally or unintentionally can always get him a lot of gold coins.
He wondered why Jedi had given up such a good opportunity to make money, but gave him all the benefits.
What puzzled him even more was Miss Lil's attitude towards her brother.
The look in her eyes when she looked at her brother, and the expression, manners, and movements when she talked to him were simply the performance of a young girl facing the man she liked.
Barto loved the happy little maid of the Deval goldsmith's shop, she was like a drop of morning dew on a green leaf, and when you saw her, you could not ignore her freshness and beauty.
Barto was tempted to pursue her, but the girl would always treat him like an amiable and respectable older brother, yet she treated her own brother to her own mother.
Barto shook his head violently, shaking off the dirty thoughts in his heart: "No way, you guy just like to think nonsense.
Julie is such a pure and lovely girl, and Jedi is your most honest and sincere best friend, how can you guess that they spit out the big cigar with a "snap" of Barto.
Barto, who was familiar with the house, didn't knock on the door, and went directly to push the door of Jedy's bedroom, there was no one in the house, Barto was happy, and now he had an excuse to talk to Lier, he happily turned to Leah's door and was about to knock on the door, when he heard a coquettish voice inside: "Oh, it hurts, Brother Jedi, you are light."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm using too much strength", was Jedi's voice.
Barto's heart sank, and his outstretched hand trembled, what were the Jedi brothers and sisters doing He wanted to push the door open to relieve the doubts in his heart, but he didn't dare to open the door of the truth, for fear of seeing an unsightly scene, what should he do at that time Leah reached out and Jedi carefully wrapped her finger in gauze: "Does it still hurt now?"
Leah said happily: "It doesn't hurt, as long as you are gentle, I won't hurt." ” Barto's face was as white as paper, and he had unclean thoughts in his heart first, and he could think of something good, and his hand reached for the handle of the door and retracted it, and then stretched it out, but he never dared to touch it.
Leah looked at Jedi shyly, her feet already had strength, but it was rare to have such an intimate contact with Jedi, so with the excuse that he was wrapping her wounds, Leah sat boldly on his lap, reluctant to get up.
"Brother Jedi, I'm sitting like this, your legs are numb."
She hoped that Jedi would say something to praise her, and it would be better to flirt with her boldly, but she didn't expect Jedi to say frankly while gently tying the button with gauze, "Well, you're not heavy, but a little numb."
"This incomprehensible one", Leah pouted, and suddenly smiled very coquettishly, and said in a nickname: "That person has another leg."
Barto's eyes went dark, and he almost fainted, and there was no longer any suspicion that they were their brother and sister.
No wonder Jedi arranged for his sister to work as a maid in a goldsmith's shop, but let his wife find a job in the lilac district at the other end of the city, just to facilitate them Barto was heartbroken, unable to accept that his best friend and the girl he loved had such a relationship, but he did not have the courage to expose their relationship.
Despite this, he was not willing to hurt either Jedi or Julie.
Barto turned around in pain, staggered out, and as soon as he reached the door, he saw Helen walking with Warren Knight, Barto froze for a moment, Julie was back now and Warren Knight was with her, if they saw Jedi and his sister Barto was very bitter, even hated Jedi, in his heart, the lovely Julie was as pure as dew, and if it weren't for Jedi's seduction, she would never have had such an indecent relationship with her brother.
But now seeing Warren Knight and Jedeh's wife, Barto's first thought is that once the scandal is revealed, Jedi will be ruined, and Miss Lil may kill herself under pressure, and the family will fall apart.
Barto gritted his teeth, suppressed the pain in his heart, and stood in the doorway and shouted very enthusiastically: "Hello Mrs.
Jedey, oh, and the honorable Warren Knight, it is a pleasure to meet you."
"Barto, why are you here, Jedy," Helen said with a smile.
"Haha, I just arrived, and I saw you, are you there, Jedi," Barto said with a grin, turning around and shouting into the room.
He barricaded the doorway, and though Helen and Knight Warren could have passed him sideways, they both stopped politely outside.
Jedi's voice came from the room: "Barto, wait, I'll be right away".

Barto couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but remorse immediately rushed to his heart: "He committed a great crime, why should I help him cover it up" Seeing Jedi coming out the door, Leah following behind, her hair disheveled and her face flushed, as if she was still immersed in the afterglow of joy, the resentment in Barto's heart became even stronger.
Today, the Warren knight seemed to be more enthusiastic than usual, and stayed at Jedey's house for a long time, hearing that he would take over the goldsmith's shop in Devar's place, and Warren generously offered to go to him if there was anything difficult to do, and use the influence of his father, General von Hull, to help solve it, much to Helen's delight.
Barto had been silent since he entered Jedy's room, and he didn't ask Jedi to walk down the alley with him until Warren had left, when the dim street lights were on.
Jedi and Barto walked side by side in the alley, Barto's carriage far behind.
Barto's face was gloomy, and he didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't usually see Jedi talking and laughing.
Jedi, who has always been nervous, also noticed his abnormality, as if his expression had been uncomfortable since he saw him today.
Jedi stopped and asked in confusion, "Bato, you seem to be very unhappy about what happened, if anything happens, tell me, we are the best friends, I will definitely find a way to help you".
Barto stared at Jedi fiercely with red eyes, gritted his teeth, and said, "You really think I am your best friend" "Of course," Jedi said solemnly, "Barto is a good friend of my Jedi."
Unless you betray me first, we'll be good friends for the rest of our lives."
Barto gritted his teeth and sneered, "Okay, good, you can treat me as a good friend, then let me beat you up" He suddenly said loudly, and pounced on him and punched Jedi in the face
